Stuck in another body and a world completely unrelated to said body? Rebirth is not easy.

The Wheel of Time turns, and as it turns the Avatar is born and reborn in an endless cycle, time out of mind. In one Cycle, called the Earth Cycle by some, a new Avatar arises to bring balance to a troubled world.

Mat, Rand, and Moiraine find themselves in a strange land after going through the Aelfinn Doorway. Not a good summaryy. Sorry :

For an unknown reason, while using a Gateway, Mat and three companions are sent to a strange new world and the only way to get back is to find the Avatar, who ever he is...
